La ética profesional y la autonomía de lo jurídico en el derecho del futuro
2019
The aim of this article is to examine how and why – in the current legal context, and because of some relevant changes that are ripening – the legal practice is supported by a solid professional ethics of the legal roles, summed up in the respect of the rule of law. Other elements that in the past seemed crucial to explain the legal order nowadays are inadequate and a legal theory without considering the role of lawyers is incomplete. After indicating the changes in the background, it will follow an analysis of the legal professional ethics and the reasons of its specificity. Against what is supported by the recent literature about eliminativism in legal philosophy, the perspective of profe…
The taint of torture and the brazilian legal system
2019
In Brazil, the practice of torture intertwines deeply with its own history. The literature on the subject has had a greater intensification on its registers during the Dictatorial Regime (1964 to 1985). In spite of the Brazilian Constitution of 1988, Brazil only makes efforts to investigate the crimes of torture of this period to comply with the provisions of the United Nations in 2011. Within this scenario, the NationalTruth Commission (Law 12.528, of November 2011) was created with the purpose of clarifying the facts and circumstances of cases concerning human rights violations, as well as the Law on Access to Information (Law 12.527 of November 2011), which have regulated the constitutio…
The European Courts and the Security Council: Between "Dédoublement Fonctionnel" and Balancing of Values
2009
The recent case law of various international tribunals facing questions related to UN Security Council resolutions shows the clear tendency to grant primacy to the UN legal order. This trend, far from being well founded on formal arguments, appears to be a tribute to a legal order perceived as superior, and, at the same time, is revealing of the ‘value oriented’ approach followed by the courts. Such an approach can be categorized from a theoretical perspective in the light of Scelle's theory of relations between legal orders, whereby the courts implement in their respective legal orders values stemming from the UN legal order. Various critical remarks can be advanced in relation to this att…

L'ordine, dal centro ai margini: a proposito della ripubblicazione di due testi di Costantino Mortati
2022
In questo articolo, offro una ricostruzione della concezione dell’ordinamento giuridico, dello sta- to e della costituzione materiale di Costantino Mortati, mostrando la evoluzione da essa subita nel corso degli anni. Mi soffermo in particolare su due aspetti: sulla natura di “fatto normativo” della volontà delle forze politiche dominanti che, secondo Mortati, sostiene la costituzione ma- teriale dello stato; e sul modo in cui Mortati applica la sua concezione alla fase di formazione e di mutamento della costituzione materiale, e ai periodi di indebolimento dell’unità politica. In this article I propose a reconstruction of Costantino Mortati’s view of the legal order, the state and the mate…
La diretta applicabilità dei trattati nell’ordinamento italiano: quo vadis?
2022
The concept of ‘direct applicability’ and ‘self-executing’ nature of international norms is still object of intense debate in the international legal scholarship. In Italy, such a debate has attracted new attention in the light of a recent ruling of the Joint Sections of the Court of Cassation, according to which the norms enshrined in the European Convention of Human Rights are not directly applicable in domestic proceedings. Such a statement seems to derive from some terminological and legal mis-understanding. By summarizing the conclusions of the several authors which have dealt with this issue in a Special Section of the review, the present article formulates some conclusions. First, it…
